- 1 large ripe banana
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1/2 cup milk (or your preferred milk alternative)
- Ice cubes (optional, for a colder smoothie)
Garnish
- Dried chamomile leaves (optional)
Instructions
- Brew Chamomile Tea: Brew a cup of chamomile tea using a tea bag or loose chamomile flowers. Let it steep for 5 minutes, then set aside to cool completely.
- Prepare Ingredients: Peel the ripe banana and cut it into chunks. Measure 1 tablespoon of honey and 1/2 cup of milk or milk alternative.
- Combine in Blender: Add the cooled chamomile tea, banana chunks, honey, and milk into a blender. Add ice cubes if you want a colder smoothie.
- Blend until Smooth: Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and creamy. Adjust the thickness by adding more milk if needed.
- Serve and Garnish: Pour the smoothie into a glass or jar. Garnish with dried chamomile leaves for an elegant touch if desired.
Notes
- Use ripe bananas for natural sweetness and smoother texture.
- For a vegan option, use plant-based milk and maple syrup instead of honey.
- Add ice gradually to reach your preferred chill without diluting the flavor too much.
- Garnish with dried chamomile leaves only if you enjoy their subtle floral aroma.
